We've been getting a flurry of email lately from potential party goers who are wait-listed for BlogHer Tickets. Some of you have declared "BLOGHER OR BUST!" You're not about to let the small matter of a sold out conference keep you from attending the Swiffer SocialLuxe Lounge. Good for you. We like your spirit!
Still, traveling to Chicago is a big expense. Maybe you didn't plan for it till it was too late. Maybe it was not in the cards for you this year, or maybe... just maybe... you still can go.
How? By telling us your story!
In partnership with our sponsor Whrrl, we will be unveiling a special contest next week. One winner will be the recipient of a BlogHer Scholarship that includes airfare to Chicago, hotel room for two nights and yes folks: a golden sold out BlogHer ticket!
We expect the competition to be fierce. So we're giving our site readers a little advance warning and time to get your story straight. Now's the time to get familiar with the Whrrl site and the way Whrrl stories look. You'll want to be in the know when the contest launches! And here's a little extra bit of insider info. When the contest launches we're going to be asking you to answer some questions related to the concept that "Bloggers are the new Celebrities".
1. How has your blog made you famous (or infamous)?
2. Why do you want to go to BlogHer and party at the Swiffer SocialLuxe Lounge?
Got that? Stay tuned! The contest starts in one week and you'll hear about it first on here or by following our @SocialLuxe on Twitter.
Wish we could take you all with us!

I have been thinking about going for awhile and just recently decided that I really NEED to as my three year old likes to say. I am totally throwing my name in the hat!
